Buying this kind of furniture online is a terrible idea.  This chair has very low armrests and I'm not a tall person.  The lever for raising and lowering the footrest doesn't work right.  When lowering, it is terribly stiff and difficult to use.  The manufacturer was cheap when making the hole for the lever to fit through.  They just cut a hole in the fabric with no reinforcement sewing to prevent tears in the future.  I wouldn't recommend this chair at all.
